Thirsty Thursday: A Fond Farewell to a Flavor
Now that Christmas and Hanukah have come and gone in a relative-strewn frenzy, we evict our Christmas trees to the curb and store away our menorahs for another year. Fast food chains stow away their decorations for the changing seasons, too — but while I won’t miss the creepy animatronic Santas and the half-hearted Star of Davids, I will miss one thing that’s going away: pumpkin flavoring. Ah, pumpkin flavor! Most of us write you off … Read entire article »

A Fast Food Vignette for 2011
I’mma start this New Year’s off with a brief memory from 2011 that encapsulates the good times, the bad times, and the in between: The move from my last apartment to where I lay my head today was absolutely hellish. As in, happened during a virtual Brooklyn monsoon, thus guaranteeing me and all of my stuff were soaking; required many more trips back-and-forth in the UHaul than previously anticipated, thus forcing us to keep it overnight; … Read entire article »

Arby’s Chicken Tenders | A Eulogy
Dear foodies, This holiday season, it’s important to remember those we have lost. (Caveat: I sincerely believe in this, but I will now proceed to be flip as hell). Me, I’d like to take a moment of silence to remember Arby’s chicken tenders. A few days ago, my roommate mentioned (apropos of something, I’m sure, though I don’t remember what) that as a youth he once drank a lot of Sunny D, then experienced a terrible stomach … Read entire article »

Outback Fakeout Birthday: A Time-Honored Tradition
It’s Christmastime/Hanukah week/kind of Kwanzaa, a time of year that just refuses to keep showing up every twelve months, and with any recurring holiday comes tradition. But I’m not here to talk about holiday traditions, oh no. I’m here to segueway this nicely into a chain-food-restaurant tradition Briana and I have engaged in since our fateful meeting freshman year: the Fake Birthday at Outback. You might not be aware of this, foodies, but Outback Steakhouse, that … Read entire article »

Fryday Deal Edition: Free Fries at Burger King
I know I’ve spoken ill of Burger King changing their fry recipe in the past. But today, Burger King does away with the oppressive reign of its weird double-fried fries and introduces “thicker cut fries“, which … well, it could be terrible, seeing as this is the burger joint that gave us the grody New Nuggets, but could be potentially awesome. I mean, before Wendy’s revamped its whole goddamn menu, they had thicker fries, with … Read entire article »

The Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit
Dear foodies, There is no fast food meal more enjoyable than a fast food breakfast (except maybe fast food fourth meal, borne of the munchies). Conversely, there is no fast food meal more disgusting than a fast food breakfast. It all depends on the restaurant. For example, the Burger King Croissanwich = horrible. (Burger King has become the official farting post* of Fast Foodies, sry2say). However, there is one fast food breakfast item that stands above … Read entire article »

The Moment You’ve All Been Waiting For: Wendy’s “New Burger” Review
This review’s been a long time coming, foodies. Technically, the New Wendy’s Burger has been on this 15%-green-earth for nigh two months now. My coworker even sang its praises before I so much as sank an incisor in one. Because I’ll be straight with you, foodies. I resisted change. (It’s not the first time.) I resisted it the way a father resists viewing his adorable daughter as a woman as she vaults into puberty. Wendy’s grew … Read entire article »
